EDITORS COMMENTS
Tom Browne, the intrepid adventurer and motoring enthusiast, poses confidently next to his innovative Light steam car in this image from the early 1900s. The vintage photograph, taken from a lantern slide, showcases Browne's daring spirit as he embraces the dawn of the automobile era. Tom Browne was a renowned cartoonist and illustrator of his time, best known for his humorous and insightful depictions of everyday life. However, his passion for motoring extended far beyond the realm of art. In the late 1800s and early 1900s, Browne became fascinated by the emerging technology of the steam-powered automobile. Determined to make his mark in this new industry, Browne designed and built his own Light steam car. This compact and efficient vehicle was a significant departure from the large, cumbersome steam-powered carriages of the time. With a sleek design and impressive speed, Browne's Light steam car captured the imagination of the public and the automotive community alike. In this photograph, Browne wears the attire of the Victorian and Edwardian eras, complete with a bowler hat and coat. He exudes an air of excitement and pride as he stands next to his creation, the steam car's gleaming engine and intricate machinery visible in the background. The image is a testament to Browne's ingenuity and his unwavering commitment to pushing the boundaries of what was possible in the early days of motoring. This photograph is part of The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, offering a unique glimpse into the past and a fascinating look at the pioneering spirit of Tom Browne and the early days of the automobile era.
